Update, WotC said it was a mistake. Live by the automated DMCA takedown, die by the automated DMCA takedown.
@Tim_Eagon Sigh... Add this to the reasons the Larian CEO got up on stage and said that the property owners are relatedly, forever short-sighted.
@Tim_Eagon this is a *comically* tone deaf move from WotC. I wonder if they'll walk it back.
@drheyzeus they already did.
@Tim_Eagon Larian not wanting to do Baldur's Gate 4 probably had nothing to do with them no longer being interested in working with the setting
@Tim_Eagon well, you never know what to believe when WotC screws up and angers fans for the 10,00th time, but they sound pretty sincere this time.
@Tim_Eagon And yet, they'll keep doing it, because people keep buying from them. I swear dnd players have Beaten Wife Syndrome. Dollars to donuts, some dnd fan will come chide me for language and tell me we should be grateful they didn't send the Pinkertons this time.
